Reception
In his review for 'Firstpost', Hemanth Kumar rated the film 1 of 5 and termed it, "silly, outdated, and a nonsensical film." 'The Hindu' critic Sangeetha Devi wrote: "The writer has weaved multiple sub-plots to fill the two-and-a-half-hour slot. The story appears tailor-made for the front-benchers and one feels a sense of deja vu at the comedy." 'The Times of India' which rated 2.5 stars out of five, stated: "A film with too many elements and very litle substance, 'Alludu Adhurs' is letdown by its predictability"
The film was later dubbed and released in Tamil as 'Maanbumigu Marumagan'.
